Le Vin



French law divides wine into four categories, two falling under the European Union's Table Wine category and two falling under the EU's Quality Wine Produced in a Specific Region designation
French wine is produced in several regions throughout France, in quantities between 50 and 60 million hectoliters per year (7–8 billion bottles)
French wine originated in the 6th century BCE, with the colonization of Southern Gaul by Greek settlers. Viticulture soon flourished with the founding of the Greek colony of Marseille
